Hi All,

Nice morning before the stormy cold front pushes through.� 7 Warbler species was kind of a surprise (suspect Tennessee would have made it 8, but only a poor look).�


I had the chance to bird with a friend who's a beginner birder.� It's really makes a "routine" birding morning fun when you can help a new birder get 8 lifers!
